ABSTRACT
The concept of magic has been associated with fantasy since ancient times, and it has become a primary factor is separating fantasy from other literary genres. Technology, on the other hand, has long belonged to the realm of science fiction, which speculates on the effects that futuristic technology will have on people. Occasionally, the two concepts overlap in the same genre as in some Japanese RPGs where dragons coexist with spaceships and in the literary genre of “steampunk” where magic co-exists with technology after the Industrial Revolution.
